Pressoplast, a leading company specializing in the transformation of technical fabrics through high-tech processes, produces PVC and polyurethane sheets, along with a range of bio-based and green plastic materials renowned for their exceptional quality and creative potential. “48% of the material used for our bio-based series is derived from sources like soy and wheat,” Chiara Colombini explained at Lineapelle. “With a focus on sustainable growth, we have developed and are increasingly emphasizing product lines entirely dedicated to recycled and bio-based materials. Thanks to our exclusive pressing process, we are able to give these materials unique aesthetic and tactile qualities. This distinctive layered process allows us to hand-place any type of insert – fabrics, prints, flakes, sequins, glitter, dried flowers, synthetic feathers, even paint strokes – between the layers. The possibilities extend to the finished product as well, from classic studding and embroidery to a multitude of other customizable effects, all of which are proving extremely popular.” The primary markets of Pressoplast are leather goods and fashion footwear. “We work closely with our customers throughout the creative process, helping them develop distinctive articles and unique collections.”
